# SPF vs SunScream

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SunScream at none against SPF's 7. SunScream also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). SPF's advantage is ratings volume (5K vs 1) and chart position (#64 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SPF sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. SunScream asks for nothing beyond the download.

SunScream holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SPF has 5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
